American Life by Madonna

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I (1)________ some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?
I (2)__________ to be a boy
I tried to be a girl
I tried to be a mess
I tried to be the best
I guess I did it wrong
That's why I wrote this song
This type of modern life
Is it for me?
This type of modern life
Is it for free?

So I went into a bar
Looking for sympathy
A little company
I tried to find a friend
It's more easily said
It's always been the same
This type of (3)____________ life
Is not for me
This type of (4)____________ life
Is not for free

American life
I live the American dream
You are the best thing I've seen
You are not (5)________ a dream

I tried to stay ahead
I tried to stay on top
I tried to play the part
But some how I forgot
Just what I did it for
And why I wanted more
This type of modern life
Is it for me?
This type of modern life
Is it for free?

Do I have to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?

American life
I live the American dream
You are the best (6)__________ I've seen
You are not just a dream

I (7)__________ to be a boy
Tried to be a girl
Tried to be a mess
Tried to be the best
Tried to find a friend
Tried to (8)________ ahead
I tried to stay on top
Fuck it

Do I (9)________ to change my name?
Will it get me far?
Should I lose some weight?
Am I gonna be a star?

Ahh, fuck it
Ahh, fuck it
Ahh, fuck it
Ahh, fuck it

I'm drinking a Soy latte
I get a double shoté
It goes right through my body
And you know I'm satisfied
I drive my Mini Cooper
And I'm (10)______________ super-dooper
Yo they (11)________ I'm a trooper
And you know I'm satisfied
I do yoga and palates
And the room is full of hotties
So I'm checking out the bodies
And you (12)________ I'm satisfied
I'm digging on the isotopes
This metaphysic's shit is dope
And if all this can give me hope
You (13)________ I'm satisfied
I got a lawyer and a manager
An agent and a chef
Three nannies, an assistant
And a driver and a jet
A (14)______________ and a butler
And a bodyguard or five
A gardener and a stylist
Do you think I'm satisfied?
I'd like to express my extreme (15)__________ of view
I'm not Christian and I'm not a Jew
I'm just (16)____________ out the (17)________________ dream
And I (18)________ realised that nothing
Is what it seems

Do I have to change my name?
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to (19)____________ my name?
Am I gonna be a star?
Do I have to change my name?
